You might try specrec in the gr-analysis module. It is optimized for fast writes but is Linux only. We routinely do 2.5 minute records at 25 MSPS sc16 format (100 Mbytes/sec sustained) with a b200 without typically dropping any samples. As mentioned, your hardware makes a big difference. We do t

Thank you very much for your reply. There isn't any switch or router between USRP and computer. They are connected by Ethernet cable. the folow-graf is not complex at all, but the signal is transmitted from the saved file and the received signal is recorded to hard disk. I tested to do that on diff

Hello Maksim, The rate at which you can move samples to and from the USRP is highly dependent on your hardware and particular setup. Do you have any switches or routers in between your computer and the USRP? I recommend reading this, admittedly in need of reformatting, wiki page which discusses va
